i second that. however webplatform.org will need some serious SEO to displace w3schools. also, webplatform needs some serious work on their docs to make them readable and easy to search.

Maybe if webplatform.org is mentioned in enough places, webplatform will have a better Google ranking and webplatform might displace w3schools.

The promotion of webplatform would really help webplatform gain popularity. Do not hesitate to send the link to webplatform ( http://www.webplatform.org ) to as many people as possible.

Share webplatform's site ( http://www.webplatform.org ) on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc...

Does SEO work in HN comments? I know it doesn't on reddit, so I wouldn't be surprised.
User submitted links are rel="nofollow"'d, so no, HN comments and submissions don't help.
I think they wouldn't do that, but you don't need a SEO magic when you are backed by two of the biggest names in search.
Being backed by Apple, Microsoft, Google and Facebook will tend to have that effect. They'll be fine.
I think google can tweak their search results. As soon this page has more content it will 'naturally' replace W3schools.
